 Since [13683], `the_shortlink()` output has included a `title` attribute.
 By default, that gives the sanitized post title, and it does not sanitize
 custom text. Given the low value of this attribute, it probably would be
 better to remove it than to try making it more accessible.

 The shortlink has very limited use in directory
